A co-worker just got one of these and raves about it. Not sure which, but it wasn't the most expensive one. Better deals can be found elsewhere online.

Okay, Pat. I give up. I entered a URL for my boat, but it was way too big, so removed it. I have the image saved at a better size, but I don't see an 'insert' method within the edit signature section? I'm fairly computer literate, if you could instruct whenever convenient. Thanks!
